Anyone know how to fit/change a car seat cover on a fiesta van?

I need to replace my drivers seat cover on my fiesta van. I have just paid the unbelievable price to get a new seat cover for my van, but they don't supply instructions on how to change it, instead they want to charge me 拢89 + pounds to fit it!



Can anyone help with how it should be done, it would be greatly appreciated!



Thanks

First get ready for some sore fingers. You will have to remove the seat from your van, turn it over and look for the brass coloured rings through the cover. These have a split in them so can be opened up and removed (don't loose them!) once you have done this you may find some plastic clips on there too. Once all the clips are off you should be able to pull the cover away from the foam on the base up to the back rest, there may be a couple more rings holding the back rest cover on. Pull off the rest of the cover and turn the new one inside out then start to stretch it over the seat, refitting the clips and rings on the way. This may take a bit of messing and pulling with the cover to make it sit straight on the foam. You will probably have to remove all trim and the runners from the seat before you start. Good luck.
